[Libs-Or] How you handle discarded materials

[Kirsten Brodbeck-Kenney]

We use Better World Books for a lot of our items. The rest go to the Friends, who either sell them or give them away. BWB does require you to scan every item, which can be a bit onerous if you have a large number of materials, but shipping is free and they accept a lot of items.

Hi all,

We are currently using Thrift Books (for materials they can resell) and Discover Books for items Thrift won't take.  We are wondering if anyone uses different companies and would you recommend them?

Thank you,
Jaime
